Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery, also known as CI/CD, is a set of processes that helps in faster integration of software code changes and deployment to the end user in a reliable manner. The more frequent integrations and deployments helps reduce the software development lifecycle.

There are three practices in CI/CD:
|
||
|
||
* Continuous Integration
|
||
* Continuous Delivery
|
||
* Continuous Deployment
|

Let’s look in detail at each of these in the coming sections.

## The Benefits of CI/CD
|
||
|
||
1. Significant reduction in integration problems.
|
||
2. Teams can develop cohesive software more rapidly.
|
||
3. Improved Collaboration between developers and operation teams can reduce the production integration issues.
|
||
4. Faster delivery of new features with less friction
|
||
5. Better debugging the production issues and fixing them in the next release/patch.
